Video Capture from the PC

Video Capture is the process of isolating a single frame (or picture) from media played on video
equipment (such as a video camera or VCR) and then converting that frame into an image file on
your PC. Once the frame is an image file, it can be saved, printed, faxed, and inserted into other files.
